Introduction: Informed consent for research biospecimen donations is traditionally obtained through a face-to-face interaction with research staff and by signing an Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved printed form. Electronic signatures (eSign) are routinely used in the electronic medical record (EMR) for the consenting of clinical services after patients review printed documentation. Our goal was to develop an electronic self-consenting workflow that mimicked clinical services. Specifically, we tested a research consent process for the biobanking of remnant clinical samples that relies solely on clinical resources in a busy outpatient practice.

模拟临床流程以同意门诊心脏病诊所剩余生物样本的研究捐赠者


简介：传统上，研究生物样本捐赠的知情同意是通过与研究人员面对面互动并签署机构审查委员会 (IRB) 批准的印刷表格来获得的。电子签名 (eSign) 通常在电子病历 (EMR) 中使用，用于在患者审阅打印文档后同意临床服务。我们的目标是开发模仿临床服务的电子自我同意工作流程。具体来说，我们测试了剩余临床样本生物样本库的研究同意流程，该流程仅依赖于繁忙的门诊实践中的临床资源。
